Bobby tears through the 70s and 80s in the first act with a blizzard of Studio 54 chaos, toilet-seat-snorting bedlam, and enough raw wealth and privilege to frost the entire Eastern Seaboard. Starring Timothée Chalamet's pilates instructor as Bobby, the sheer insanity erupts into an even more deranged second act, where the stage lights blaze on a chorus line of dancing measles, a rock-tinged raw-milk gospel revival chorus, and a hellfire tap number that denounces fluoride as the very mouthwash of Satan himself! In a spectacle of pure sparkling lunacy, Bobby is swept into a torrid, torch-song love affair with a sexy brain worm so hot, so seductive, and so codependent it gets its very own curtain call.
